On our trip to Victoria, Australia we revisited our previous route along the Great Ocean Road. Last time we didn't have a chance to head down Cape Otway and see the lighthouse, so we made a point to add it to the itinerary. We visited on a blustery October day, with the wind biting and [...]

We took our first trip to Australia as a break from some really stressful events, and drove the great ocean road to Warrnambool. The B&B there had the most amazing orange cake in the mornings, but in the evening, we just took a walk along the coast to watch the sunset. That's when I saw [...]
